    Hello,

    I'm looking for a simple php script which can fetch my paypal balance from my account and display it on my webpage

    there is already a program called apapi which does this however its not been updated in 2 years so the phasing is out of date
    the link for that should you need it is: http://apapi.sourceforge.net/

    I have 2 paypal accounts and need to be able to display both on the same page so it needs to be able to log into 2 accounts and subtract the data and display it on my page

    Paying $5

    Please PM me should you need more details

    It will require some neat cURL work with SSL.
    Also anyone with FTP access or some sort of exploit will be able to see your paypal passwords.
    Unless paypal has this feature available normally I would advise against it.

    And by the way, this work is not worth $5.

    This isnt going on a public website, this page will be on a password protected directory which is used to purely to show me my balances for my company accounts

    and most of the work is already done in the previous script(as posted above)
    hence why the $5 as its not a full design needed.

    Without an in-depth investigation of the existing code and how much PayPal has changed, the code could be 95% of the way there, or it could be entirely off and need to be scrapped. Two years is a lifetime in web development, particularly for something changing as often as PayPal and their authentication mechanisms. The only way you're getting this done for $5 is by someone who isn't technically proficient enough to finish the job, or someone who has an existing script ready to send to you; but in the second case, I wouldn't even bother with the trouble for $5.

    Sure this can be done.. There are clear and legal ways to call the API, but i doubt someone will do for $5. If you can raise the stakes. i can do the script for you.
